Remember this? The United States and China held talks on human rights and the Obama Administration felt compelled to equate our supposed human rights violations (poverty, crime, anti-illegal immigration laws) to China’s well-documented violations (political prisoners, gunning down dissenters, religious oppression, etc.).

But apparently we were only told half of the story. The rest actually makes this latest stop on the Obama Apology tour much, much worse.

QUESTION: Was there any areas in which China sort of turned the tables and raised its own complaints or concerns about U.S. practices around the globe or at home? Can you give some examples there -

ASSISTANT SECRETARY POSNER: Sure. You know, I think – again, this goes back to Ambassador Huntsman’s comment. Part of a mature relationship is that you have an open discussion where you not only raise the other guy’s problems, but you raise your own, and you have a discussion about it. We did plenty of that. We had experts from the U.S. side, for example, yesterday, talking about treatment of Muslim Americans in an immigration context. We had a discussion of racial discrimination. We had a back-and-forth about how each of our societies are dealing with those sorts of questions. …

QUESTION: Did the recently passed Arizona immigration law come up? And, if so, did they bring it up or did you bring it up?

ASSISTANT SECRETARY POSNER: We brought it up early and often. It was mentioned in the first session, and as a troubling trend in our society and an indication that we have to deal with issues of discrimination or potential discrimination, and that these are issues very much being debated in our own society.

We’re apologizing to the Chinese for our supposed discriminatory practices? And the best example of that supposed discrimination is a state-level law that permits officers of the peace to check the legal status of suspects? Really? We’re truly a nation run by left-wing college professors and community organizers.

Incidentally, the federal government apologized for a law Attorney General Eric Holder hasn’t even read yet. So they’re actually just talking out of their ass in order to apologize to the Communist Chinese. Good times. Good times.
